An Experimental Study on Black Cotton Soil Stabilization by Using Biowaste (Baggasse Ash)

The conventional methods are time consuming and are not economically feasible. Hence there is a need to find the other possible ways to satisfy the performance as well as economical criteria. These enzymes have been proven to be very effective and economical. Another advantage of the biowaste (baggasse ash) is that these are environment friendly. The efficiency of bio enzyme depends upon the amount of dosage, type of soil and curing period. In our country vast areas consist of black soils. As the conventional soil stabilizers like gravel, sand and others are depleting and becoming expensive day by day at a very rapid pace, it becomes necessary to look towards for alternative eco-friendly stabilizers as their substitute. Recently many Biowaste (baggasse ash) have emerged as cost effective stabilizers for soil stabilization. Some such type of bio-enzyme, like Terazyme, bagasse ash, lime etc has been used in the present work.
